How Can YOU Support Your Child’s Career Development?
- Listen to your student and help them identify their talents, 的优势, and passions so they can identify the degree field or major that would be best for them
- Encourage them to visit 职业服务 and meet with a career counselor. Counselors use intentional interviewing techniques to help students verbalize their interests and values.
- Emphasize the importance of internships and leadership roles in student organizations to develop skills employers want. Attaining career-related experience should be balanced with academic studies and grades.
- Promote volunteering, part-time jobs, and job shadowing
- Ask them which classes they like and why
- DO NOT apply to positions for them. This is a very important part of personal development that promotes self-study and reflection and is a skill that matures over time.
- Encourage your student to attend career fairs (or any networking event). This is the time for your young adult to learn to communicate professionally and speak for themselves.
- 职业服务 will help reduce and alleviate student fears and any intimidating factors through practice interviews and preparation workshops. Encourage your students to participate in the workshops and career networking events to prepare them for their professional job search.
How Can You Help Support Other Lewis University 学生?
- Allow students to job shadow you or visit your work site to learn about careers in your place of business
